Patrick Clancy makes devastating admission in first interview since ex-wife Lindsay's mistrial

Warning: This article contains discussion of suicide and child death which some readers may find distressing.

Two weeks on from his ex-wife's trial failing to reach a conclusion, Patrick Clancy will speak to the media for the first time this weekend.

The 38-year-old grieving father came home in 2023 to the shocking discovery of two of his children dead and another in a serious condition, while his wife Lindsay lay motionless on the floor after jumping from a window in an attempted suicide.

Patrick was left even more heartbroken after his youngest child Callan passed away after days in the intensive care unit, with it more than three years until Lindsay would eventually face a trial after she was arrested and accused of murder.

However, the jury failed to deliver a verdict and things ended in a mistrial on 4 September, with Lindsay's lawyers claiming postpartum psychosis and depression as a defence, with Lindsay stating that she had listened to a voice in her head which told her to kill her children before killing herself.

Although Lindsay will return to court when a retrial is officially confirmed, her ex-husband Patrick will speak with CBS correspondent Ross Douthat in a 60 minutes interview this Sunday.

Clips from the interview have already been released online and in one, the heartbroken ex-husband made the devastating admission that he still tries to speak with his deceased children; Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan.

When he was asked what he tells them by Douthat, he replies: '"Help me'... All the time."

In the interview, Patrick may also address the vicious online rumours and conspiracy theories that he played a part in his children's deaths, despite Lindsay and her lawyers making it clear that she was the one who killed them.

In a statement released by his lawyers after the mistrial was confirmed, Patrick promised 'consequences' for all those online who had made the baseless allegations against him.

The statement read: "Over the past months, Patrick Clancy and his family have been subjected to a relentless, escalating and destructive defamation campaign,' the statement read.

'This campaign of misinformation has been launched and promoted by minor celebrities, so-called influencers and outright conspiracy theorists who appear intent on boosting their own social media profiles and potential profit by publishing what they know to be outright falsehoods that Patrick was somehow involved in the death of his young children and other vile claims.

"(This) has resulted in real life threats to his reputation, livelihood, and life,' his attorney said in his statement.

"Patrick has no choice but to address this situation - with the clear goal of stopping injurious behaviour, creating accountability for lies that are self-serving to the perpetrators, and being able to return his attention to what matters: preserving the memory of Cora, Dawson and Callan Clancy and supporting other women facing perinatal mental health challenges.

"Enough is enough - this spread of blatant and baseless falsehoods must stop.

"Those responsible should understand that there will be consequences, and every appropriate measure will be pursued to hold them accountable, including legally. Law enforcement has been notified."

Patrick, who has since re-married and now lives in New York, took to the stand during the trial and will likely do so again when his ex-wife's retrial begins.
